WALL-E FINALL-Y.

Guess which great, big, screeching man-child just scored
TWO TICKETS TO GO SEE THE AICN SCREENING OF WALL-E, 2 FULL DAYS BEFORE THE MOVIE OPENS!!!

This one did...



A grown man should not be this excited to go see, what is, in essence, intended to be a family film.

Nor should he have been this excited to be turned loose on the Wizard World showroom floor last year.

I am, apparently, 12 years old.

Cheers,
Mr.B

PS. Before you ask, the second ticket is already claimed by a co-worker. That's one of the perks of being in the room with me when I say aloud, "HEY! I just won two free tickets to go see the advance screening of WALL-E!" It makes up for the farts, the cowboy music and the innapropriate innuendo-laden office-humor that she normally tolerates with minimal complaint.

PSS. EDITED LATER TO ADD: I was just looking over the recent hits to my blog and saw that someone at Pixar Studios was just doing a blogsearch for any sites that mention WALL-E and came across this blog entry. They didn't stay very long and they didn't look around at anything else, but they were here.

HOW FUCKING COOL IS THAT?!? SOMEONE AT PIXAR WAS LOOKING AT MY BLOG!!! WELL, THAT MAY JUST BE THE COOLEST THING EVER.

I shake my fist.

Are you... playing DDR there? You look as though you are dancing a spritely gig under great duress.

You are 12. And yes, being said office co-worker that must endure the farts, cowboy music and innuendos, I still thank you for the ticket and comraderie. But your readers need to know that the funiest part of the whole evening was before the movie started - picture the 30-something man-child jumping out of the cab, RUNNING 15 ft. infront of me into the theatre, up the escalator and grabbing seats, into which he does not sit, but bounces giddily, a goofy grin spread across his face, babbling wildly about Pixar this and Wizard World that and "did you know that this is the first movie that some kids here will ever see live in the theatre?". I left him with his thoughts and i-Pod and grabbed us drinks and popcorn...kiddie size...just cause :) It felt good to be young again for the evening and to laugh out loud and to be absolutely amazed that cartoons have come so far. Congrats Pixar - it just keeps getting better!
